What's This?

This help page explains the "website search" function, options and features.  As new options are added to the search engine, the features of those options will be explained here:

Exact Words | Exclude HTML | Boolean

   

The "Exact Words" checkbox:
This option allows you to limit your search making the search results more accurate.  Searching for "prospect" will count both Prospect and Prospecting showing those pages in the search results.  (Prospecting will appear in the search results, as the word "prospect" is contained within.)

Enabling the "Exact Words" checkbox, in effect, eliminates the word Prospecting from the "prospect" word count.  Using this option, the website search engine will only count the occurrences of "prospect".

This "Exact Words" checkbox defaults to ON. 

  

The "Exclude HTML" checkbox:
This option allows you to make the search results more accurate.  By default, the website search engine will search the entire website page code for the keyword regardless of where in the page the keyword occurs.

Enabling the "Exclude HTML" checkbox eliminates all the HTML tags from the search.  (The keyword may be in a META or HTML tag and will not appear directly on the page.  Therefore, a page may show up in your results, but you wouldn't find it using the "Find" feature of your browser.)  These "hidden" words will not be counted or show up on the search results list.

This "Exclude HTML" checkbox will default to ON. 
(This option is currently under construction.)

   

The "Boolean" checkbox:
This allows you to use "Boolean" search string instructions and make the search results more accurate.  By using this option, you can take advantage of the "Boolean" characters such as + (plus sign), - (minus sign) and " (double quote).

You can include quotation marks (") to delineate a phrase, plus signs (+) to require words or minus signs (-) to exclude words.  For example:

This entry will search for documents that contain either result or delivery or any capitalized variant (i.e. Result, RESULT, DeLiVeRY, Delivery).
  
This entry will search for documents that have either Result or Delivery but not any other capitalized variation. When you use a capitalized word, the search engine assumes that you are only interested in an exact match.
  
This entry will search for only documents that contain both words. Be sure there is no space between the plus sign and the keyword.
  
In this case, all documents found must contain result or any capitalized variant.  The results may or may not include the word delivery.
  
This entry will search for documents that have the exact phrase. Placing quotation marks around any series of words turns them into a phrase and tells the search engine that you are only interested in documents that have these words in this specific order.
  
This entry will search for documents that contain the phrase "Result Delivery" but do not contain the word "Sale".
  
This will search for documents that contain Result and any word starting with Deliv. Use an asterisk when you're not sure how a word is spelled or to find variations.

This "Boolean" checkbox will default to OFF. 
(This option is currently under construction.)
